Clover is 2

Yes, you wanted to see a colored picture of Olive's hair-[over]do. Whoa.

We don't do huge birthdays around here. Out of the 25 birthdays that we've had for our children, we've had a friend over for 2. I like to keep expectations low, so when I let them invite two friends over they'll call me the best mom in the whole world. You see how I work.

Ask Clover how old she is and she'll give you the correct answer, but hold up a whole hand of fingers. She's bossy, this little person, but I miss her when she naps, eat her up every day and never get full.

I love lychee! Where's the best place to get some here in Florida? (That's one of the biggest things I miss about Hawaii, when your neighbor drops off a bucket of lychee because they have more than enough)

Such a pretty little girl! I'm not a big birthday bash thrower either. My kids understand that they will get a "big" (as in 10 friends or less) theme party when they turn 5, 10 and 16 (well, maybe we'll do a bigger bash for 16...that's still a ways off, though). Every birthday in between is a low-key, low friend count or just a family affair.
